Initially the group was a trio that played standard American jazz in acoustic format, that is to say, without a defined identity. Nevertheless the group has undergone a remarkable evolution in the last Albums, in which they are have included keyboards as permanent members, DJs and even singers (emphasizing the collaboration of Jorge González and Julian Peña).

At the moment the group plays Latin jazz (jazz fused with rates/Latin American styles), achieving a surprising fusion with the tradition of the Chilean pop music: the result is highly original, attractive and evocative.

This musical proposal has turned it in to the most popular Latin jazz of Chile, with big sales and getting payed on ballad and pop local radios.

Also it is worth the trouble to mention that the drummer Pancho Molina, has achieved great success with his Latin jazz band the Holders.

Angel Parra Trio Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No puedo creer que es verdad
que tanta felicidad
halla llegado hasta mí
y simplemente aprendí
que el cielo siento alcanzar
pensando que voy a amar
por eso no puedo así
quitar mis ojos de tí

Tú tienes que perdonar
mi insolencia al mirar
toda mi culpa no es
me he enamorado esta vez
difícil es resistir
sin tí no puedo vivir
por eso no puedo así
quitar mis ojos de tí

Te quiero mucho
mi bien, compréndelo
te quiero mucho
con toda intensidad
te necesito
te digo la verdad

Te quiero mucho
y pido sin cesar
que no me dejes
ya que te encontré

Pues voy a amarte
siempre, voy a amarte
